tlo··on Disk Utility still can't check and repair APFS volumes and containers (2021)
Reminds me of https://apple.stackexchange.com/q/311843/26185

tl;dr:

- Missing disk space can be related to a broken filesystem

- APFS tooling is currently really bad, you probably need to erase the volume and reinstall to fix any filesystem problem

... and this was in 2018 and I fear not much changed.

tlo··on MacOS may lose data on APFS-formatted disk images
unfortunately it's not the local backups. I guess the missing disk space is related to the error I get when I check the partition. I guess I need to reinstall... :(
tlo··on MacOS may lose data on APFS-formatted disk images
My AFPS volume got corrupted probably during the upgrade to High Sierra. No data lost, but my disk is missing almost half the disk space. See https://apple.stackexchange.com/q/311843/26185
tlo··on What’s Next for Gitlab CI: Auto DevOps
Maybe for paid solutions. But I'd guess if you take the free version of Gitlab into account, it is probably the dominant self-hosted Git solution.

tlo··on “Why are you releasing a full exploit just minutes after the patch is released?”
I recently reported a security issue to a quite popular open source project (which has at least some company support). The fix is ready but because of coordinating other security fixes into one big release it is - after almost 2 month - still not released. I wonder if this is normal? What else can you do? Full disclosure?

tlo··on Hacker News API
For my twitter bot https://twitter.com/hn_bot_top1 I use http://api.ihackernews.com/ at the moment. This works but the site (and the API) is quite often not available. So I'll probably switch to the new API as soon as I have some spare time...
